Along with my childhood friend and business partner Joseph Raby, we developed the concept of a collaborative entrepreneurial environment, creating a community where an average 80% of the businesses at each of our three locations are actively collaborating with each other to help their businesses grow.

Today, Sunshine Suites are the leader in providing start-up companies and entrepreneurs with a community of support and services needed to launch, grow and sustain small businesses.

The success of Sunshine has launched such notable companies as Adobe, Vayner Media and Vitacoco.

In addition to my work at Sunshine, I am a frequent speaker at events and workshops for entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs such as the Fast-Track program and Monroe College’s 2012 Commencement.

Frequently business owners ask me to provide consulting in a number of different areas including strategic and long-range planning, growth models, systems, sales, marketing, networking and community building.
